[QUOTE="Wil M, post: 3375536, member: 62628"] I didn't say that the establishment after the demo of the Sky (not Sly- both French built machines but quite different) was bad- just commented that the amount of hair-pinning has left lengths of up to 12 inches in a row with no wheat growing (less than 5% of total area affected) - maybe this to be expected with any drill going into OSR stubble, as I said DD is all new to me. Where seed has had good contact with soil, plants have established well. Glad to hear that Duncan Drill working well for you- I had a brief look at some info on this after I came across a used Mk3 Renovator for sale, but didn't pursue it any further because of small size of seed box, and just shy of 3m working width for that machine. What sort of horizontal width of slot does the Duncan boot make to place the seed in? it looks to be narrower than the Aitchison. Does the drill work best in trailed configuration, or could it be tractor mounted successfully? Would be also interested to hear if there is still a supplier for the Duncan Drill in UK? [/QUOTE]
